While the spotlight will inevitably fall on Winx during barrier trials at Rosehill, Hugh Bowman has another important assignment on Frolic.

The three-year-old filly is closing in on her first race since April, and first for trainer Edward O'Rourke who was entrusted with the Golden Slipper runner-up when Michael Freedman headed to Hong Kong last year.

Frolic, who had bone chips removed from both knees after running seventh in the ATC Sires' Produce Stakes, had her first barrier at Rosehill on January 22.
